Video footage shows Jon Benjamin sitting in the front seat of a car and directing the weapon towards a person sitting in the back in what appears to be a joke.
Laughter and music can be heard in the background as the employee makes a hand gesture suggesting they’re uncomfortable.
At the time of the incident, sometime earlier this year, Mr Benjamin was on an official trip to two Mexican states where there is a high presence of drug cartels, the Financial Times reports.

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has not officially announced that Mr Benjamin was removed from his position.However, the government’s official website states that he ‘was UK Ambassador to Mexico between 2021 and 2024’.
Looks like he found a weapon used by his security detail and against all basic common sense decided to treat it like a toy without knowing the first thing about how to handle it safely.
This employee’s life is being put in danger by an idiot who is smiling because he has no grasp on the severity of the situation he is creating.
I’d say that “uncomfortable” is an understatement.
What a fucking twat.
Should have just stuck to Bob’s Burgers.
I mean, at least this seems like an Archer thing to do
I’m actually a little disappointed this isn’t an American.
